Lets Explore || London

OH how I LOVE London. It has been a good few years back since I was last visited the city but I’m one of those people who just loves visiting somewhere multiple times, especially when there is SOooo much to do for just one or two trips. I love exploring new places, finding new things I never knew existed and I always feel SOoo much for confident about exploring it properly.

We did all the touristy stuff like a West End show, museums blah... – but we also managed to do a WHOLE load of un-touristy stuff. So, I thought I’d give you a lil run down of what we got up, where we stayed and what we loved…. Heads up, this is gonna be a rambly one so grab a cuppa, some biscuits & get comfy!

~ THE 'HOTEL' ~

This was my first time using Airbnb and I was really impressed with what we got, it was a relatively cheap room but had all the essentials and location was perfect for Camden town with it being only a 10 minute walk away from the market. But seriously if you’re after somewhere reasonably priced, with an uber comfy bed, near to everything you need & the underground then this is the one.

 ~ THE SHOPPING ~

Now, you really can’t visit London without a lil bit of shopping. Whenever I have visited London, I've only ever shopped along Oxford Street and Regent Street, as much as I love high street shopping, scooping up it was great to explore smaller independent stalls and shops in the likes of Camden and Shoreditch (of course, Brick Lane)!! Although we didn’t go crazy, I still wanted to look at every. single. shop. that we walked by. to only come home with a few purchases.

~ WHAT I LOVED ~

London is one of those places where you can just walk, walk & walk some more – ANYWAY, after we were done with all the eating and shopping there was still SO much for us to see and do. We decided to hit us as many free things as possible!! If you’re after a museum there are TONSSS. Or head to Kings Cross Station to jump through to Platform 9 and 3/4's for a cheeky snap. And... hands down my favourite thing we did we were Sky Garden. Thirty-five floors high and views of the whole city what more could you ask for!

If you managed to reach this far then wow thank you.... but if you’re currently sat thinking - why aren't you in any of the photos !? Well, it’s coming. I just wanted to separate posts on what I was wearing, because well, let’s face it, most of our trip time was me begging Alex to take snaps (!!) So for now, that’s #comingsoon.

I hope you enjoyed this v long post of what we got up to, where’s your fave spot in London?
